[more]Hi EEES Crew! I just got back from an amazing two-week summer course on animal acoustic communication hosted by the University of Southern Denmark (SDU). This course is offered every other year to PhD students from across the globe. For 10 years now, bioacoustics experts from SDU and elsewhere have come together to provide students with training in both marine and terrestrial animal acoustics research. Before attending, I had heard that the course was known for being good, and I was not disappointed.
